Betreff: [Nagios-users] newbie questions v. 2.0
Hello,
i know that probably this is a low level questions but i have read the documentation of nagios and still have some questions...
i have created a hosts.cfg file in order to place my servers, and i started it with a w$ 2k3 vmware virtual server on my machine.... heres the file:
define host{
host_name testserver
alias test server windows
address 192.168.0.5
parents
check_command check-host-alive
max_check_attempts 5
check_period 24x7
process_perf_data 0
retain_nonstatus_information 0
contact_groups nagios-admins
notification_interval 30
notification_period 24x7
notification_options d,u,r
}
here's my question:
i can resolve hte name from my mahcine of the server, i did not created a nagios-admins group, and i have the original command.cfg file, and when i insert in my nagios.cfg the line so it should search for hosts on the new file i cant restart nagios and i get an error CONFIG ERROR! Start aborted. Check your Nagios configuration
heres the line:
cfg_file=/usr/local/nagios//etc/hosts.cfg
just below object configuration file
i have checked according to the docs, the files and it's order...but i really can't find the error, i would really like to know how to add hosts and services to nagios...
